Nonhuman love interest. The male lead is a merman.
The moment she fell into the sea, Sheng Xia thought she was done for.
Then a breathtaking merman swam up from the depths, kissed her lips, and breathed life into her.
She thought of him as her savior, believed he was a pitiful experimental subject, and took pity on him, caring for him. What she didn’t know was that those eyes, clearer than blue crystal, had already marked her as his one and only prey
Was she his lover, or his food?
The perfect Third District is a dreamlike prison, painstakingly constructed.
By the time she finally discovers that the mute merman she’s lived alongside is actually the deep-sea ruler who commands every mutated creature, it’s already too late to escape.
“Humans all deserve to die.”
He grips her chin and licks the bead of blood from the corner of her lips, his voice low and husky, filled with satisfaction:
“Sheng Xia, your blood is the only one that tastes sweet.”
“Every day I wonder: should I eat you today, or let you grow a little longer?”
“Try smiling at him again. I won’t be able to stop myself from pulling his bones out one by one and laying them in front of you.”
Only when the truth comes to light and Sheng Xia despairingly prepares to leave does he say
“Don’t go, Xiaxia. You can have all my flesh and blood.”
